The Alpargata Unity Cupsole design kicks off the collection with its rainbow stitched uppers and colorfully coated outsole. Next up is the Alparagata Unity Rainbow with a striped side accent and purple contrast outsole followed by the Baja Unity Rainbow Slip-On with its multicolor gradient heel counter. The final footwear piece for the collection is the Alpargata Unity Love Wins design, covered in messages of hope and love in a mix of fonts and designs.
“While the Unity collection is released seasonally, to Toms Pride is not just a single moment in time” explained the brand in a press release. Therefore, the brand, in addition to already investing one-third of its annual profits in grassroots efforts, will be donating to programs created within and for the LGBTQ+ community all year long.
In particular, it will be providing resources to Brave Trails, a summer camp made to bolster the LGBTQ+ youth community; Toms also explained that Brave Trials is gearing towards launching a queer-affirming mental health program with funds from the brand.
Last year, the 2020 Unity collection is inspired by the LGBTQ+ community and the work of organizations like the Los Angeles LGBT Center and Helen Keller International, which provide healthcare and services to vulnerable families and individuals in need.
